Crema's Take
“Shawnniecakes is a warmly run neighborhood spot that excels at the full breakfast and lunch experience, drawing consistent praise for their Philly steaks and thoughtfully seasoned sides like those legendary god-tier fries and perfectly cooked collard greens. Beyond the coffee and traditional drinks, what keeps people coming back is the genuine hospitality and their knack for handling both quick solo orders and large group spreads with equal care, making every item taste intentionally made rather than rushed.”

Friendly staff and order took no time at all. The fries are delicious, as if seasoned by god himself. The chicken Philly was so cheesy and well seasoned I will think about it everyday
I ordered a large delivery order for a work event. Everyone was extremely impressed with the spread. And they all raved about how everything was so fresh and delicious. From the sandwiches, mac and cheese, to fruit salad. Shawniecakes really outdid themselves. They provide wonderful service, prompt delivery and of course the food was out of this world. I would highly recommend.
Shawnniecakes exceeded every expectation! From the moment we ordered, the customer service was outstanding, and the food was absolutely delicious. They handled a large order with ease, and every single person in my family was happy with their meal. You can tell they truly care about quality and their customers. Can’t wait to come back!
The Love Sampler platter is amazing! That's all I ordered, but there were a lot of other options. The greens were seasoned perfectly and cooked just right, the mac and cheese was delicious, the chicken wings are not overly seasoned- they're plain but cooked thoroughly and so good. The stuffing was dry, and I don't like sweet potatoes but I tried them and if you do like sweet potatoes, you'd like these ones for sure. $15 for the Love Sampler- not bad. I'll definitely return! The only real issue is the atmosphere. The store is tidy and cute butI wish they had a place to sit, you gotta go eat in the bank chairs and I felt too awkward doing that so I asked for it to-go and ate in my car in the parking lot. I hope they can expand soon for a better dine in experience so I can bring my whole family! Support local!!
Philly steaks are the BEST! The meat was juicy and flavorful. They were generously sized. Wings were fall off the bone good and delicious. Sweet potato fries were also delicious and came with marshmallow dipping sauce. Friendly service and went out of her way to make sure we were enjoying our meal. Highly recommend Shawniecakes!!!
